ALLOCUTIONS — DG MIKE MOORE
Genève, 19
avril 2001 The Director-General of the World Trade Organization today welcomed news of the settlement achieved between the Government of South Africa and research-based pharmaceutical companies. |

 “The stakeholders should be congratulated. It is a win-win situation for all concerned,” said WTO Director-General Mike Moore. “The settlement shows that the WTO’s Agreements, such as TRIPS, contain the necessary flexibility to meet the health needs of developing countries and can be used as a basis for resolving difficult issues concerning access to essential drugs.” For more information on TRIPS and pharmaceuticals, see the TRIPS section of the website. |
